Details
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) publishes details about staff numbers and payroll costs for payroll and non-payroll staff on a monthly basis.
This data is also available on data.gov.uk:
Following Machinery of Government changes and the creation of the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade (BIST), workforce record migration and payroll transition activities remain ongoing. At the time this report was prepared, workforce data relating to departments transferring into BIST had not been fully integrated into BIST’s systems. Accordingly, this publication is based solely on workforce data held by the former Department for Business and Trade (DBT).
